We derive the thermodynamic entropy of the mean field $\phi^{6}$ spin model in the framework of the micro-canonical ensemble as a function of the energy and magnetization. Using the theory of large deviations and Rugh's micro-canonical…
We solve the mean-field $\phi^4$ model in an external magnetic field in the microcanonical ensemble using two different methods. The first one is based on Rugh's microcanonical formalism and leads to express macroscopic observables, such as…
Two simple spin models are studied to show that the microcanonical entropy can be a non-concave function of the energy, and that the microcanonical and canonical ensembles can give non-equivalent descriptions of the same system in the…
The anisotropic quantum Heisenberg model with Curie-Weiss-type interactions is studied analytically in several variants of the microcanonical ensemble. (Non)equivalence of microcanonical and canonical ensembles is investigated by studying…
We study the thermodynamics of the Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model with an external potential playing the role of a "magnetic field". If we consider only fully stable states, this system does not present any phase transition. However, if…
For the spherical model with nearest-neighbour interactions, the microcanonical entropy s(e,m) is computed analytically in the thermodynamic limit for all accessible values of the energy e and the magnetization m per spin. The entropy…
We show that entropy is globally concave with respect to energy for a rich class of mean field interactions, including regularizations of the the point-vortex model in the plane, plasmas and self-gravitating matter in 2D, as well as the…
Mean-field models, while they can be cast into an {\it extensive} thermodynamic formalism, are inherently {\it non additive}. This is the basic feature which leads to {\it ensemble inequivalence} in these models. In this paper we study the…
Exact solutions are obtained for the mean-field spherical model, with or without an external magnetic field, for any finite or infinite number N of degrees of freedom, both in the microcanonical and in the canonical ensemble. The canonical…
A large deviation technique is used to calculate the microcanonical entropy function s(v,m) of the mean-field phi^4-model as a function of the potential energy v and the magnetization m. As in the canonical ensemble, a continuous phase…
It is well-known that the entropy of the microcanonical ensemble cannot be calculated as the Legendre transform of the canonical free energy when the entropy is nonconcave. To circumvent this problem, a generalization of the canonical…
Collective critical behavior is often identified with thermodynamic nonanalyticities and divergences emerging only in the infinite-size limit. Here we adopt a complementary viewpoint: criticality is a structural property due to the…
Classical spin systems with nonadditive long-range interactions are studied in the microcanonical ensemble. It is expected that the entropy of such a system is identical to that of the corresponding mean-field model, which is called…
The microcanonical entropy s(e,m) as a function of the energy e and the magnetization m is computed analytically for the anisotropic quantum Heisenberg model with Curie-Weiss-type interactions. The result shows a number of interesting…
The present study regards the zeroth order mean field approximation of a dipole-type interaction model, which is analytically solved in the canonical and microcanonical ensembles. After writing the canonical partition function, the free and…
We consider a paradigmatic model describing the one-dimensional motion of $N$ rotators coupled through a mean-field interaction, and subject to the perturbation of an external magnetic field. The latter is shown to significantly alter the…
For more than 100 years, one of the central concepts in statistical mechanics has been the microcanonical ensemble, which provides a way of calculating the thermodynamic entropy for a specified energy. A controversy has recently emerged…
Far-from-equilibrium magnetization dynamics can be accessed when a magnetic material is subject to a femtosecond excitation, such as an optical laser or an electric current. Numerically, the demagnetization of magnetic materials is…
This work investigates the magnetic properties and the magnetocaloric effect in the spin-1 Blume-Capel model. The study was carried out using the mean-field theory from the Bogoliubov inequality to obtain the expressions of free energy,…
Two recently proposed expressions for the computation of the entropy in the microcanonical ensemble are compared, and their equivalence is proved. These expressions are valid for a certain class of statistical mechanics systems, that can be…
